I am trying to unit test some ajax calls (written in Scala.js) with jsdom and I would like to disable same origin policy checks.
How can I do that ? I was searching this on the net but found nothing.

You cannot. jsdom acts like a browser, including same-origin checks.
Make sure you are setting the URL correctly though.

Many thanks for the info.

At least Chrome has a command-line argument to disable CORS checks. Why can't JSDOM provide a developer-friendly way to disable it?

+1 to @arendjr's suggestion. JSDOM's utility is not only as a browser emulator but also as a testing platform and pretty much anything which makes testing harder has the unfortunate affect of reducing testing. It takes a lot of nock ceremony to work around JSDOM's cross-origin checks which leaves test writers working on code incidental to their intended tests.
